Chapter 10: UAD ExpressCard Products

• When UAD–Xpander power is on but there is no electrical connection to the

computer (such as when the computer is off), the UA logo glows red.

• When power is on and there is an electrical connection to the computer, the

UA logo glows blue (

Figure 25

).

Note:

The Power Indicator displays the state of the electrical connections

only. It does not indicate when UAD driver communication is established (use
the UAD Meter to check driver communication status).

“Hot” Swapping

Hot swapping is not supported. Hot swapping refers to the ability to discon-
nect the UAD ExpressCard while the notebook computer is active or sleeping,
and reconnect it at a later time without rebooting.

Note:

For proper functionality, you must reboot the computer with the

Xpander connected every time the UAD ExpressCard has been removed.

Disconnect

The UAD-Xpander can be disconnected when the notebook computer is active
or sleeping only if these two conditions are met:

1.

1. No host applications (including UAD Meter &Control Panel) are running.

2.

2. The ExpressCard is properly powered down by the operating system.

To disconnect the UAD-Xpander while the notebook is active:

1.

Quit all UAD host applications, including the UAD Performance Meter.
This ensures that all UAD Powered Plug-Ins are inactive.
